Cloud hosting is the latest form of hosting that has become extremely popular over the past few years. The main concept of cloud hosting is "Divide and Rule" – the resources required for maintaining your website are spread across more than one web server, and are rendered as per need basis.

Cloud hosting solutions vary greatly. Even if they appear the same `on the outside', they're not. Each has a unique combination of underlying infrastructure, features, interfaces and layers. That said, they can be organized into three general categories, each defined by the architecture of the solution. And that all-important architecture determines or influences the level of control, flexibility and transparency each solution delivers.!!

Cloud hosting services provide hosting for websites on virtual servers which pull their computing resource from extensive underlying networks of physical web servers. It follows the utility model of computing in that it is available as a service rather than a product and is therefore comparable with traditional utilities such as electricity and gas.

Hosting services that are provided to customers via multiple connected servers that comprise a cloud, as opposed to being provided by a single server or virtual server. While security and lack of full control of data are the most frequently cited concerns with cloud hosting, there are numerous benefits possible with cloud hosting, including increased reliability and accessibility, seamless scalability and cost efficiency.
